Positive and negative temperature dependences of electron-impact ionization in In[sub 0.53]Ga[sub 0.47]As

The electron-impact ionization coefficient (alpha) in In0.53Ga0.47As increases with temperature at electric fields below 200 kV/cm, in contrast to most crystalline semiconductors. It exhibits conventional negative temperature dependence at higher fields. A four-valley analytical band Monte Carlo mod...
